i like your feet first project. Some great photos too.
I've always found it strange when photographers take photos of people from other countries, especially Asian and Eastern European. It's almost as though we're fascinated with them because they look different. I'm bored of it all to be honest. If you're going to take a photo of someone, at least have them doing something different, from a different perspective. If we took a photo of a guy who works in Tesco, straight on, against a wall, it wouldn't be that interesting, unless he had some unusual features.
I'm not saying your photos are rubbish, at all, but one of the main reasons they are good is just because what you are looking at is good. If my gran went to the Incas in Peru, i bet she'd come back with some great shots. A photographer has to have a different perspective, a different angle, to really stand out.
